The Wiveton Bell is situated in the peaceful village of Wiveton, just outside Blakeney on the North Norfolk coast. This is the sort of place where muddy boots and sandy shoes are welcome, and long lunches drift into cosy evenings by the fire. Think exposed beams, a laid-back bar serving local ales, alongside thoughtfully styled bedrooms. Whether you are planning a walking holiday, food-led break, or coastal escape, this award-winning inn makes for a wonderful base.

Telegraph Travel wrote: “This middle-of-nowhere pub makes a great base for lazy days strolling across the fields and marshes of North Norfolk. It was bought by the regional Chestnut Group, which has maintained its reputation for good food and cosy rooms – you couldn’t imagine a more welcoming place to be on a dark Norfolk night.” Expert Rating 8/10
Food & Drink
Sample menus
Food is very much at the heart of The Wiveton Bell offering. The kitchen focuses on seasonal, locally sourced ingredients, celebrating the best of Norfolk’s larder. Expect well-executed pub classics alongside more refined dishes, with menus that change to reflect what’s in season. Breakfast is a relaxed affair, offering hearty cooked options and lighter choices to set you up for a day on the coast. Lunch and dinner draw both locals and visitors, so booking a table is advisable, particularly at weekends and during the summer months. The bar champions local ales and a considered wine list, making it just as appealing for an evening drink as for a full dining experience.
